Title
18th century Conder Token bearing the Grocers Arms
Description
English: Eighteenth-century copper Conder Token most likely dating to the early 1790s. The token is badly worn, but the obverse would have had the Grocers Arms (a shield with a red chevron and 6 cloves, supported by two griffins with a pack camel above) with the lettering MANCHESTER PROMISSORY HALF PENNY with a date. Published examples are dated 1792 and 1793. The reverse has the bale mark of the East India company and would have had the lettering PAYABLE AT IN FIELDINGS GROCER & TEA DEALER.

See Dalton & Hamer 1910, 87.
